Read an article, and instead of being able to carry on down reading other articles, page jumps back to the top leaving one to start scrolling all over again. Today, the site won't scroll down. Ads everywhere, garish colours and just a general mess, so much so that I have abandoned reading Stuff at all. How are others experiencing this absolute disaster?

A wonderful, rare opportunity!

WHEN? Friday, Saturday, and Sunday 28 January 2024, 10 am – 3 pm.

WHERE?: - 60 Greers Road (close to Memorial Ave), Burnside, Christchurch.

WEB: www.tboustead.nz...

I am a local watercolour artist who is passionate about New Zealand birds and landscapes. I paint in my studio at home, which is located at the end of a picturesque cottage garden path. Our garden currently has about 60 dahlias out in flower.

Until this coming Sun 28 January 2024, my art studio will be open to the public between 10 am and 3 pm. A small gallery is set up in my studio to display some of the work that I do.

You are most welcome to come along and see some of my work, and find out what has inspired me to paint. Flags will be at the entrance, so just follow the signs to my studio.

Apart from the paintings, I also create craft pendants and earrings which are also for sale. Eftpos is available and parking is on the street.

Note: More of my artwork is also on display in the Liffey Gallery (Lincoln) until Sunday 18 February 2024.
